0277/2023 - Prevalência de uso de práticas integrativas e complementares e doenças crônicas: Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde 2019 Prevalence of use of Complementary and Alternative Medicine and chronic disease: National Health Survey 2019
O estudo objetivou investigar a associação entre ter alguma doença ou agravo crônicos e a prevalência de uso de Práticas Integrativas e Complementares (PIC) na população adulta brasileira. As doenças crônicas constituem uma séria questão de saúde pública e há limitações de respostas satisfatórias pela medicina ocidental. Assim, tem aumentado a procura pelas PIC por serem uma alternativa humanizada, de menor custo e de fácil aquisição. Foi realizado um estudo transversal de base populacional utilizando dados da Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde de 2019. Foram estimadas as prevalências de uso das PIC por categorias das demais variáveis (presença ou não de agravos crônicos), além de razões de prevalência (RP) ajustadas por características sociodemográficas. A prevalência de uso de alguma PIC, nos últimos 12 meses, pela população brasileira (a partir de 18 anos) foi de 5,5% (IC95%: 5,2%-5,8%), e os adultos com algum agravo crônico tiveram maior prevalência de uso (RP: 2,11; IC95%: 1,89-2,36), mesmo após ajuste sociodemográfico. Acidente vascular cerebral, asma, artrite, doenças osteomusculares relacionadas ao trabalho, depressão e outras doenças mentais, doença pulmonar obstrutiva crônica, câncer e doenças cardíacas, como hipertensão arterial, tiveram associação com maior uso de PIC.
The study aimed to investigate the association between having a chronic disease or condition and the prevalence of use of Complementary and Integrative Medicine (CAM) in the Brazilian adult population. Chronic diseases are a serious public health issue and there are limitations of Western medicine to offer satisfactory answers. Thus, the demand for CAM has increased as they constitute a humanized treatment option, with lower cost and easy acquisition. A population-based cross-sectional study was carried out using datathe National Health Survey2019. The prevalence of CAM use was estimated by categories of the other variables (presence or absence of chronic conditions) and prevalence ratios (PR) were adjusted for sociodemographic variables.The prevalence of the use of some CAM, in the last 12 months, by the Brazilian adult population (from 18 years old) was 5.5% (95%CI: 5.2%- 5.8%), and adults with a chronic condition had a higher prevalence of use (PR: 2.11; 95%CI: 1.89-2.36), even after adjusting for sociodemographic characteristics. Stroke, asthma, arthritis, work-related musculoskeletal disorders, depression and other mental illnesses, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cancer and heart disease like hypertension were those that were associated with greater use of CAM.
